Blurb: “WITCHCRAFT IN THE 20TH CENTURY - Norman Taylor thought it was absurd for his beautiful wife, Tansy, to believe in black magic. He made her throw her potions, charms and amulets into the fire. After all, he was a college professor, a rational man who didn't believe in superstition.

Then, his troubles began... phone calls in the dead of night, a student who threatened him with a gun, and a hideous gargoyle-like creature who stalked him about the campus, one whom he alone could see.

Slowly, an atmosphere of palpable evil encircled him until the truth could no longer be denied. There were witches all around him, conniving for his soul, lusting for his body ..• and he was powerless to defend himself.

"Easily the most frightening and the most convincing of all modern horror stories." - Damon Knight”
